I don’t know why but I am a total sucker for these Extralife DIY videos. Perhaps because I am so cack-handed myself and have the DIY skills of an undeveloped chimp who’s yet honed his motor neuron skills. Perhaps I living vicariously through these videos, as, if only I could solder (and understand basic circuitry) I could fix all the broken stuff I have. I digress.
In his latest video, Zeroes and Ones editor, code-bod, musician and producer Matthew Cieplak takes us through turning some weedy 3 1/2″ Sony speakers into a neat little DIY project, housing them in a discarded coffee tin. Sonos, Beats by Dre, step aside…
Here’s what he has to say about it:
I found some junk and turned it into shiny, noisy junk. Follow along as I turn some found objects into objects d’art. No coffee was harmed in the making of this video.

Very cool inded. Would simply use them to reamp and record for fun FX.
Yeah seems like a neat replacement for aurotones maybe 🙂 But yes, Re-amping seems like an awesome solution if you can get the level right.
